    i guess people are now taking advantage of the situation and buying multiples just to resell on ebay. Hopefully they get a decent size shipment out before xmas to stop that.

    I hate these things... I knew the second I saw an advert what the issue would be "Muuuuuuuuumm...." and yep... it's going to be the curse of my life for the next 5 weeks!

    It's the only bloody thing the girl child wants, not only do I think it's hideous and over priced, it's going to be Buzz Lightyear all over again!!

    Ok slow day today, no stock alerts and I'm quite missing the ships foghorn going off.

    Tried TRU again and got the usual "don't know" but someone somewhere must know!

    HHH
  • There are a few available to reserve in Argos in some London areas. I have just seen Camden, Angel and Holburn

    Edited to add - it is only the Teal one 555/8629
  • I managed to order two from amazon germany yesterday. Pure luck. I have two girls so this one per customer in some stores nonsense could've potentially created ww3. If you haven't done so already, set up 1 click ordering on amazon for speed, make sure your account details are entered, correct and up to date on applicable sites and keep an eye on stock informer.

    Good luck.
  • Not sure if this is allowed - I accidentally reserved 2 in Angel Islington (only need one) so have a spare reservation code if anyone is in that area needs one I can PM ?

    Yawn... this kind of rubbish marketing happens every year and people fall for it hook line and sinker.

    Sorry for being a bit of a cynic. It's a Christmas thing.
  • Does anyone know if the stock informer site still works if you have the page minimized or do I need to leave it open? Thanks

    Hi I think you have to have it fully open for the alarm to sound, I have had it minimized before and you get the alert on the tab but no fog horn,

    HHH
  • I'm having nightmares about that alarm, it's like trying to get 2012 Olympic tickets. My life was ruled by that site.
